It was a day just like any other, I woke up in the morning, washed up, brushed my teeth's, and ate breakfast.
Next I went to the university office and prepared the subjects for the day's lessons.
I teach history, but my passion lays in mythology. Today's lesson in my history course is on Greek history, I am going to teach fast so I can cover the entirety of the subject in this two-hour lesson, and then put the subject in the exam tomorrow.
I giggled with glee, realizing how distraught the students will be, after realizing that they get an entirely new subject for the exam the next day.
As you can probably guess, I don't really like my students all that much. I practically skipped my way to the class hall, giggling with joy.
This is my first year as a professor, and I hope to establish my classes as hard, so I can attract hard learning students to make my prestige in the university higher.
I entered the class fifteen minutes earlier than the class was supposed to start, it's a thing I picked up in the first semester of teaching. If I arrive early to the class, the students that arrive on time will think they are late and arrive on earlier notice.
Looking around, I see the class is almost full. Well, by now the students know about my policies regarding lateness, so it's unlikely the students that are missing will arrive in to class this time.
Well, that's Bad for them considering the fact I am teaching an entirely new subject this lesson, and it will be in the exam the next day.
I giggled with glee at their misery before noticing a student raised their hand to ask a question. Before I could give her permission to speak, she started.
Professor Genova, will we be covering subjects in preparation to the exam next day. The girl with brown hair asked with a pleading voice.
Looking at her, I smiled and said, yes, we will be covering subjects that will appear in the exam tomorrow.
I heard their collective sigh of relief as I smiled from ear to ear. Usually I will treat days nearing to exams as any other days, not reviewing the materials of the exam with the students. But they heard I was going to teach something that will appear in the exam, so like the idiots they are they assumed that I will be reviewing the subjects already taught
I smiled almost devilishly, while looking at the hopeful idiots I was teaching for the past year. I shouted for the entire class to hear, open your books to page 248. Quickly I saw some in the class getting worried by the page number. One of the students asked, sir, that page doesn't cover any subject we learned already.
Smiling from ear to ear, I look at them and said. Of course, it wouldn't have anything you have learnt before, this is an entirely new subject on Greek history.
And before you ask, I Said seeing some students raising their hands. I didn't lie, considering the fact it will appear in the exam tomorrow.
Make sure to study properly, this is the only lesson before the exam and I will not open extra lessons after school time.
Looking at their faces of despair, I smile, sit tight because we have a lot to study today.
Turning around, I could imagine the curses they want to spew at me, and I bath in the anger and misery they feel.
Looking at the drawing laid on the screen, Saturn, 1636 by Peter Paul Rubens. It depicted Saturn, the Roman version of the Greek titan Cronus eating one of he's children.
Cronus was a mad titan, driven to insanity by the prophecy that one of his children will be the one to end his rule. Personally I thought it was stupid, why have more children if you don't want to lose your throne, but clearly he couldn't stop procreation even if It's to save he's own life, literally.
Instead, the mad titan resulted to eating he's kids. Which, isn't as stupid as it may sound, considering that imprisonment is the only option after they are born, since all gods are immortal, and finding a better spot to hide something than your own belly is hard
Smiling, I turn around intending to start the class, but before my eyes I see a blue screen with the writing on it saying.
System notice
Due to large amounts of prayers, the Patreon God of this planet was force to take action
In 5 seconds you will depart from this world
Looking at it I was shocked, what the hell is this thing in front of me.
Glancing around the room, i notice the students don't seem to see the blue screen in front of me.

Seeing the counter go down, my panic grew. What do they mean by, " depart from this world ", is this going to kill me
3
Prayers, who prayed for me to die
Looking around the room at the broken gazes of the students, I realize.
2
all of Those fucking students prayed to god for me to die
1
Looking around the class, I shout out in despair, you fucking bastards.
The light lighting my spot on the class grew and grew. Until a beer of light shot down, destroying the podium I was standing on
Later that will be known as the rapture incident. Many scientists will wonder what caused the event, but the students of the unfortunate professor couldn't care less, for the exam was suspended indefinitely, and the next professor they got didn't have it as their life's mission to make the students life's miserable.
* blink *
I tried to open my eyes, but I couldn't manage to do so, twisting around I could feel my belly button connected to something. Grasping at that thing I notice it is a string, pulling at the string I face a wall blocking me, kicking it the wall bounces like a trampoline pushing my leg back.
Before I could investigate further, I see in front of me a screen, bizarre considering the fact I couldn't open my eyes. Looking at the familiar screen, I read the words written on it.
System notice
due to the unfairness of your departion, you have been deemed to match the bars for transmigration.
As a part of your transmigration, you will be blessed with a system.
Checking for systems matching your aptitude
loading....
Matching system found:
Congratulations Hades your system is, the absolute ruler of the underworld.
As a tip from the god that killed you, we warn you to be warry of not just the people of this world, but of transmigrators of your nature, for they are likely to come, and unlikely to be friendly.
After i finished reading the system notice the screen changed from transparent blue to deep black, olive branches grew from the sides of the screen encircling it.
When the olive branches finished surrounding the system screen, a mini skull appeared at the middle of the top.
When the screen finished transforming, I heard a deep male voice proclaim, " I am the absolute ruler of the underworld system, how may I serve you ".
Before I could gather myself from the change of the screen, I feel a tug from the rope, it pushed me lightly up until I could feel my legs being exposed to air. And then i was dragged to the open, forced to the outside world.
wet and disoriented from the previous erea i was in, i was confused, first it was the sudden transmigration, then it is that weird space i suspect was a womb and the system, now it is this, what the hell is going on today. i open my eyes, blinded by the lights but before i could gather myself i saw a massive mouth opening infront of me and biting down swollowing me up.
